The Scoundrel Days of Hobo Highbrow

Hobo's advent calendar 2008
December 3

statue of Christian Krogh

We eventually located him [Haagen] on Halvdan Svartes gate. He was waiting by the statue of Christian Krogh. What those two would have to say to each other wasn’t worth talking about. Krogh sat there on his massive sculpted behind, looking inspired whilst Haagen stood there sweating his socks off, dressed in a dark suit, a saxophone under his arm. He must have played "Öppna landskap" at record speed and run like the wind to get there.
